| Methodist Episcopal Church | 
|
| In February 1899 the Methodist Episcopal Church of New Lothrop was organized. Later that year the present sanctuary and belfry were built of timber cut from local farms. A 700 - pound bell was donated by the H.P. Niles G.A.R. post in 1891 in honor of New Lothrop's Civil War veterans. In 1900 a portion of the former English Settlement Church was attached to the side of this structure. Mergers in 1939 and 1968 resulted in the church being renamed First United Methodist Church. |
